I'm Costa Rican and I've had genital herpes for 5 years, and I have been having outbreaks once a month at least, always when I have my period. My doctor prescribed Valtrex once a day, but since it is insainly expensive and I can not afford it, he changed it for Aciclovir every 8 hours for 7 days, and then after that Valtrex once a week...this is my second week, ...can it work once a week?

All too rarely, airline attendants make an effort to make the in flight "safety lecture" and announcements a bit more entertaining. Here are some real examples that have been heard or reported:

1. On a Southwest flight 245 (SW has no assigned seating, you just sit where you want) passengers were apparently having a hard time choosing, when a flight attendant announced, "People, people we're not picking out furniture here, find a seat and get in it!"

2. On a Continental Flight with a very "senior" flight attendant crew, the pilot said, "Ladies and gentlemen, we've reached cruising altitude and will be turning down the cabin lights. This is for your comfort and to enhance the appearance of your flight attendants."

3. On landing, the stewardess said, "Please be sure to take all of your belongings. If you're going to leave anything, please make sure it's something we'd like to have.

4. "There may be 50 ways to leave your lover, but there are only 4 ways out of this airplane"

5. "Thank you for flying Delta Business Express. We hope you enjoyed giving us the business as much as we enjoyed taking you for a ride."

6. As the plane landed and was coming to a stop at Ronald Reagan, a lone voice came over the loudspeaker: "Whoa, big fella. WHOA!"

7. After a particularly rough landing during thunderstorms in Memphis, a flight attendant on a Northwest flight a announced, "Please take care when opening the overhead compartments because, after a landing like that, sure as hell everything has shifted."

8. From a Southwest Airlines employee: "Welcome aboard Southwest Flight 245 to Tampa . To operate your seat belt, insert the metal tab into the buckle, and pull tight. It works just like every other seat belt; and, if you don't know how to operate one, you probably shouldn't be out in public unsupervised."

9. "In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, masks will descend from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it over your face. If you have a small child traveling with you, secure your mask before assisting with theirs. If you are traveling with more than one small child, pick your favorite."

10. "As you exit the plane, make sure to gather all of your belongings. Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the flight attendants. Please do not leave children or spouses."

12. And from the pilot during his welcome message: "Delta Airlines is pleased to have some of the best flight attendants in the industry. Unfortunately, none of them are on this flight!"

Im writing this to my boyfriend (33 yo). How can i revise this to make it sound better? I DONT want to leave it as is.
I love our conversations.
I want to keep the same meaning but change words around but definitely want to start out saying. I love.... Does saying nice conversation sound too platonic or does the word talks sound better? Also what other word could I say instead of nice? Any writers or people with good writing skills please reply, thanks

ill be going to the dermataologist next week to hopefully treat my acne and so that it goes away. im 17 right now and it started when i was like 14, but only on my face. then, when i was like 16 or so , i had it on my back and chest and shoulders. I dont have health insurance and thats why i took so long to search for help. i called and asked them how much it was for me to go and they said it was $90. My questions is, what is the dermatologist going to do? is he going to check blood? skin? what do you think he'll prescribed for my case on acne & scars ? also how expensive is retin-a or accutane?, Thanks.. :)

I have no idea of this concept in statistics.

All I know is that some samples of a population (say, 50 students in a school, 70 sailors on the Kitty Hawk, or 100 members on a web site) are biased and some (a particular group of people, like skaters, gamers, girls that have gone out with many guys, etc.) are not.

But I do not understand anything about it at all. What is bias, in statistics?

I posted yesterday about having constant headaches and being dizzy, but today it took a turn for the worst. I was taking a shower, and out of nowhere I started feeling really sick. When I tried to move my head back a bit to finish washing my hair, I became really dizzy and everything in view went completely black. It stayed like this for about a minute, until I was able to get myself out of the shower and sit myself down. Has anyone ever had this happen to them while they were pregnant? I'm 17 weeks right now.

Does anyone know where to find a really good guide for starting solids? Like how many bottles, how much cereal to start with, when to go to vegetables and fruit and the amounts. Things like that!

My dog is a little over two years old.
He is a pretty small dog.
He is 3/4 Maltese, and 1/4 Poodle.
My dog likes to bark at strangers (namely visitors that come in my house).
My dog immediately barks whenever he heres my garrage door open and when my doorbell rings.
I have to admit, his barking sometimes does give me a headache.
My dog is very possessive; although he is getting better.
For example, my little brother is playing with his action figure, and then he suddenly drops it on accident.
My dog will immediately run to the toy, grab it, and either chew or just keep it.
To get back the toy, we call my dog to "eat", meaning we will feed him a piece of bologna to get him away from the toy.
Sometimes i feel my dog is so smart that he grabs whatever he can so that we can call him to "eat."
While he is in possession of the toy, if we try to get close to him he will growl. Sometimes he will even attack us.
I have been bitten by him in the past (about five times).
Help?
